<title>ABSTRACT</title>
<p>This paper reviews the Army Generic Hull [<xref rid="R1" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>-<xref rid="R5" ref-type="bibr">5</xref>] as a vital developmental
tool for underbody blast modeling and simulation applications. Since 2010, it
has been used extensively to help calibrate and validate various numerical
software codes and methodologies. These are being used extensively today in the
development of underbody armor, as well as mine blast subsystems such as seats,
to protect both military vehicles and their occupants. In the absence of easily
shareable information in this domain due to data classification, this specially
formulated product is a valuable part of any toolset for underbody blast
development and product design.</p>
